Description

Similar to [ Explore Ohana integration #45 ](https://github.com/codeforboston/finda/issues/45).

The SODA API seems to be a great and simple way to access open city/government data, and one can request data in JSON format with locations (but not geoJSON). It would be nice to have finda be able to interface directly with these, so that maps could be updated when the data updates.

I found [this project](https://github.com/mvexel/socrata-geojson) in python to pull SODA data and convert it to geoJSON however I had difficulty getting it to work with SoQL queries.
